Quick a2s question

Do vulnerability stacks effect limit break damage in last wave? Just wondering if we should use it right away or wait for a few stacks to get spread around

[Heavensword]

No, Limit Break damage/effect is fixed. It deals unaspected damage of fixed potency(depending on the level) and the damage dealt is determined by the combined WEAPON DAMAGE of the participants of the encounter. I am pretty sure you are familiar with the mechanic, but I am going to elaborate just to be clear.

All MELEE DPS: LB1/2/3 respectively

Executes single attack of 2.3k/5k/9k potency of the total COMBINED WEAPON damage of the party. Better your weapons, more damage it does.

Magic DPS: LB1/2/3

Executes Area of Effect of 1.4k/3k/5.4k Potency of the total COMBINED WEAPON damage of the party

Tanks, healers, BRD.MCH... they are irrelevant

So only way to affect LB damage is by upgrading your mainhand weapons.

Eh, not really. Ravana's Scorpion and Beetle Stance clearly affect Limit Break damage. So do other examples, like the Golem boss in Sunken Temple of Qarn while its Soulstone is still active.

Only problem is that some Vulnerability Downs/Ups are more equal than others. For example, Trick Attack apparently doesn't affect it.

So to answer your question... Yes, it does.
